Summary

The bill creates new pay scales for county commissioners and other elected county officers, setting higher salaries for July 1, 2014, 2022, and 2026. Officials must receive a certification from the county auditor that the county can afford the raises and must file a written request to receive the higher pay. If the certification is not granted or a request is not filed, salaries remain at the prior level.
